Roma coach Paulo Fonseca has had his Serie A touchline ban reduced from two matches to one.

Fonseca was handed a two-game ban by the Lega Serie A after continuing to aggressively shout at referee Davide Massa following his dismissal in Roma’s 1-1 draw with Cagliari on October 6.

However, the 46-year-old appealed the decision and will now only miss one game – Sunday’s trip to Sampdoria – before returning to the dugout for next week’s home meeting with AC Milan.

Roma, who confirmed the news on their official Twitter page on Thursday, sit fifth in Serie A ahead of their return to action this weekend.
